Just finished the Reverie, working on Requiem Infernal now- this is how Chaos should be depicted, insidious, glorious, horrifying, and transformative all in one. Very good writing, with plenty of depth to get stuck into (as I'm realizing having read some of this thread). Please! Welcome to the Coil. You'll only be here forever.

Lord Marshal Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Do people recommend reading The Sins of My Brothers or Aria Arcana first? I've been holding off on the former hoping it leaves the anthology format, but that is looking increasingly unlikely anytime soon.

DarkChaplain Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I'd read Aria right after Requiem Infernal, but before Sins of My Brothers, personally. Chronologically it makes sense, but Aria is also generally more directly linked to Requiem (being set at its climax).

System Sound Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Altar of Maws - Well this was a great horror short. I have no clue what's even going on on this lovely planet any more, but I guess it's part of the charm? Lovely little touch that "About the author" section mentions what anthologies have some of his previously written shorts. Would help if we could easily read all the previous stuff all in one place...

DarkChaplain Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 I'm actually really upset about them advertising Phil Kelly's Shadowsun novel at the back instead of, you know, Peter's Fire Caste, which is also a Taun novel? Like, for feth's sake, BL, at least promote a competent author.

Master Ciaphas Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 A Peter Fehervari omnibus would be an instant-buy. His writing is some of the very best that comes from Black Library!

System Sound Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Question is: why didn't they yet? More recent stories had omnibus collections done. And it's not like there's a lack of material to compile either...

theSpirea Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Peter has a small, dedicated fan base, especially in Russia. I remember he mentioned in one of the interviews, The Reverie (or one of his latest novels) sales would decide whether he continues writing for BL or not. Ubiquitous1984 is spot on. I'd say BL is aware Peter's writing is way above your average BL output but it's struggling to reach a wider audience. Or should I say, BL is struggling to promote it correctly.

EverythingIsGreat Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Good day, I am going through some of his works, and I have encountered "True Night" brought on by a "Black Sun" in at least a couple of shorts happening on the same planet. As well as mentions of them in longer stories. Apologies if the following has been raised before, I did not go through this thread and have not searched the forum. I vaguely remember BL novels years ago involving the appearance of a dark star that would corrode sanity and life in nearby planets, with Inquisition missions to worlds that were going mad when the aforementioned dark star appeared. Sorry I cannot remember any more details or titles/authors. As I have just started reading the PF stories I wonder if there is any connection. Spoilers are welcome, hidden or otherwise.

System Sound Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 Hmm, the only dark star that I know is the Tyrant Star, but as far as I'm aware it was only in the Dark Heresy RPGs.

DarkChaplain Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 (edited) There was an event referenced in Warhammer Horror iirc, particularly in McNeill's novella from Novella Series 1. I doubt they're actually related, though. The Dark Coil has been pretty self-contained with its mysteries. At any rate, Sarastus in particular still has some mysteries to reveal. We've come a long way since "Nightfall" back in Heroes of the Space Marines, but even with The Walker in Fire, Requiem Infernal and Nightbleed, there's a lot more left cooking than has been served up so far.

Beren Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I do believe there is one reference to the Calixis sector in one of Fehervari's novels, so I'd there's a good chance Fehervari is at keast aware of Komus.

Master Ciaphas Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 So. Now, years later, I managed to finish Requiem Infernal during my summer hols. Now that was an awesome read. There are soo many questions as to the fate of various characters, that I hardly know where to begin! If I could figure out how to hide the questions behind a spoiler tag, I would! I noticed that there is a companion short story - Aria - for Requiem Infernal? Is it any good? And does the more recent Altar of Maws have any relation to RI? Cheers!

DarkChaplain Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 If you haven't already, you should read Cult of the Spiral Dawn (aka "Genestealer Cults"), because it's very much dealing with part of the fallout from Requiem Infernal.

Master Ciaphas Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 I have read "Cult of the Spiral Dawn" and most of the e-shorts and e-novels released. On my to-read list is "Aria Arcana", "The Sins of my Brothers" and "Altar of Maws".

Lord Marshal Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 (edited) Good news, we're finally getting a Dark Coil collection! Bad news, it's a Special Edition.
